A less passive aggressive set of responses would be to alert Beth to the backhanded-slap flavor of her comment. She might not have intended that at all.

Man, what a stupid site this is. I love passive aggression…almost as much as I love the genuine balls-out kind.

What happened to the other eyeball?? Two exclamation points = two eyeballs. Yet, she has two exclamation points, one eyeball? Very strange.

Putting a person’s toothbrush in the toilet has a similar effect of giving someone a disease on purpose, which is assault. If they find out.

i cant formulate senences unless they are bar related.

She used 2 different colors in her messages. Maybe the blue is to create a fake sense of calm and serenity. The green, however, transmits an image of all that is good, such as grass, GrannySmith apples, and margaritas. It appears Beth is trying to woo Simon, while calmly killing Erica with fake-kindness.

That sure breathes some fresh air into this discussion, instead of the usual, “u spelt that wronng” crap that useless posters usually go with. Thanks!!
